Living in Bethlehem

In Hebrew, Bethlehem means 'the house of bread', and the bible identifies it as the city of David. The New Testament describes Bethlehem as being the birthplace of Jesus, and as such, the city has one of the oldest Christian communities in the world - the history behind the individual towns within is absolutely fascinating, and makes for an exciting place to explore. It's no surprise then, that religious people from all over the world visit Bethlehem because of its connection with the bible. Even if you're not religious yourself, Bethlehem is still a stunning and brilliant place to explore. Living in Bethlehem, however, can also be tricky if you've never visited the state of Palestine before, or if you've never lived anywhere other than your home country. InterNations is designed to make your life abroad much easier - with forums, discussion boards and articles dedicated to giving you a helping hand, expatriates from all over the world leave hints and tips to make living abroad as an expat much easier.
